Doted By The Regent King Chapter 1683 - 1621: Who Made the Move?

Purple Jade called Nanny Shen over and pointed out the things Imperial Physician Xu had found.

Nanny Shen’s face also darkened, and she picked up the Mud Pill, saying, "I didn’t see this thing during my first examination."

"Really?"

Nanny Shen nodded, pointing at the wood, "I just thought it was ordinary Agarwood fragnts."

"Though you are proficient in dicinal herbs, you’re not a doctor, so it’s understandable that you didn’t recognize it. The potion soaked in this wood is just the usual Labor-inducing dicine. But the dicine in the golden hairpin is made from rare ingredients, which, as far as I know, only existed in the Forr Dynasty’s palace; it’s a banned secret dicine."

"That mother and daughter absolutely can’t get their hands on such a secret dicine," Purple Jade said sternly.

Imperial Physician Xu remained silent; he was aware of such Underworld Office matters but wouldn’t interfere.

"Madam is probably starting to have a reaction, Nanny Shen should check on her first. Those two are already locked in the woodshed, they can’t run away, this must be thoroughly investigated," Purple Jade said.

Nanny Shen curtsied and withdrew.

Purple Jade had Imperial Physician Xu settled in with good food and drink to prevent any unforeseen events, and then sent a ssage for i Er to co over, telling her about Madam Zhou falling into a hidden trap.

"That mother and daughter are locked in the woodshed," Purple Jade said with a calm face, "What’s the real story, where did this start, who acted first, let’s go through it all from start to finish. I think it’s related to the Wu Family."

i Er nodded, seeing her looking guilty, and said, "You shouldn’t bla yourself too much, no matter how cautious one is, there will always be a slip-up, and if the other side intends to strike, they’ll find opportunities."

Purple Jade sighed lightly, saying, "I only feel I’ve let the young lady down." Then she added, "By the way, a few days ago Zhou Xiuer went to Xiangguo Temple, inquire about the details as well; sothing was added to her purse, most likely placed when she went out recently."

"Alright."

i Er exchanged a few words with her and then took people to interrogate Madam Lu and her daughter without further ntion.

Purple Jade went to see Hua Wushuang again. This ti Madam Zhou’s miscarriage was exposed, thanks to him; if he hadn’t brought Imperial Physician Xu, the situation would still be unclear.

Hua Wushuang sat in the room arranged for him, reading a book silently, but he seed sowhat distracted, occasionally glancing out the window.

"Master of Unparalleled Tower doesn’t act like a guest," Purple Jade remarked with a hint of a smile.

Hua Wushuang set down the book and said, "I heard quite a commotion outside; what’s happening? Has she given birth?"

Purple Jade bowed deeply, saying, "Speaking of this matter, I must thank the Tower Leader for his help. On behalf of my young lady and madam, I extend our gratitude to the Tower Leader, thank you."

Hua Wushuang frowned at her solemnity, "Just what has happened?"

Purple Jade hesitated for a mont and said, "Soone tried to harm my Madam using several kinds of Labor-inducing dicine, resulting in her miscarriage, hence... If not for Imperial Physician Xu, we would still be clueless."

"Who?"

Hua Wushuang’s deanor turned icy, his handso face becoming stern.

He had just found his sister and hadn’t even seen what she looked like, now hearing soone want to harm her?

Purple Jade said, "We will thoroughly investigate. No one will escape."

Hua Wushuang pondered briefly, "Wu Family’s Madam Wang?"

Purple Jade was slightly surprised?
